Do you guys really think there will be another race/class in the expansion after WoD? This thread got me to thinking about my decision to use my free lvl 90 on a monk. I am not that fond of playing the monk class, and was thinking about just saving the free lvl 90 until the next xpac comes out.

That is a topic for another thread. This is a "pick which class you personally might like to see".

Sadly, there were several options listed on the fan site. Also, I never saw Runemaster on the list I was viewing. I can only assume when people think Runes in WoW, they immediately think DK. But, that is why I listed in my OP "Please post 'Other' in the thread".

Prefer none, but Demon Hunter if they absolutely had to add something.

My preference is also none, as I feel we have enough already. But knowing Blizz, they will use a new class as a hook for the next expac. I'm not going to speculate what it might be. Just opening the door for people to express their own opinion.

I highly doubt we would be able to decide. While people think they have influence in the decisions like this, I would imagine this is purely internal.
They listen to feedback once the class is made, but I doubt if everyone signed a petition to add a Bard, that it would actually happen.
Neat sentiment though!

Hunters need some competition for looting bows/guns/xbows and if Mage(caster) and Warlock(caster with pet) can work together than why not Ranger(ranged) and Hunter(ranged + pet). It's class that should be avalible for most of races(all armies have regular ranged troops), it's very popular class lorwise and can have very different specs like Scout(ranged rogue), Santiel(melee-ranged hybrid), Brigadier(gun master with a lot of aoe, dots, and rockets, something like mortar from WC3 or Teriz tinker idea.)
Ofc it could be made but adding 4th specs to rogue, warrior and hunter but srsly new class is much cooler than 4th specs for 3 classes

Why should the number of mail wearers dictate the need for one more class? Personally, I think that argument is only really valid for people with OCD who require things to be balanced and symmetrical. I bet 11 character slots instead of 10 or 12 is likely also driving you nuts :P

Demon hunter was a nice choice.

so everything is even and doesnt look messy. 12 playable classes with 3 for each armor type looks good.
i dont have OCD.

Based on Blizzard's past expansions, the expansion after WoD will more than likely introduce the 12th WoW class.

I do have OCD (not really) and like things to be balanced and symmetrical and I suspect with a new class Blizz will be as well.

Personally, I've always loved the idea of Runemaster ('Runes' dont have to be the same as DKs rune system!). I would see them as a melee DPS (lore states they are similar in fighting style to monks) with some support features (as there is a gap to be served there but I doubt a true support class could exist in WoW without a fair shake-up). Possible flaws are: They prefer light armour, not mail (if we were guessing on future classes); possibly too close to monk or enhance shaman; don't really need another melee class.

Most developed unplayable is probably Demon Hunter and it's a popular one. I wouldn't mind it. Just probably a bit of overlap which might result in it not being as cool as expected.

I also wouldn't mind seeing (as often stated) a second class using ranged weapons. Dark Ranger maybe. Again, differentiating it from a hunter might be difficult.

A class I thought of.. completely out of left field.. Chromatic Dragon. Lore-wise you were created by Nefarion or Deathwing (whatever) but in their absence must find your own path in life. Like all dragons you can (and often do) use humanoid form (this can be your race/faction selection) with learning dragonform as a (flying) mount later on (maybe an ability to use it in battle also). Specs can be tank (Earthwarder), heals (Lifebinder), caster DPS (Arcane) with Time-use and Dream-use as utility spells for all specs. Mail armour would be appropriate as many mail leatherworking items use dragon scales. Only thing with this is I think it would be just a mix of current classes and the only uniqueness is the idea they are dragons.
Just a thought
